So, it's Christmas season and I've been thinking about getting a new console.

I know Xbox360 has it's disadvantages and advantages and vice versa for PS3.

I don't want to hear about the Specs and what not cuz i already know but I just can't seem to make my decision.

SO I will solely base my decision based on what the huddler wants me to get.

well then.... HELP!?

Coming from someone who owns both, I personally like playing games on the Xbox better. Now, don't get me wrong, the PS3 is great too, especially while having a br player, BUT if you like playing online with friends, I can guarantee most of them will be on Xbox (this is why I bought an xbox). I would say that some of the exclusive games to Ps3 are a little better than the ones exclusive to Xbox, yet that's just me. So in my opinion, if you're looking for a better online experience go with an Xbox, if not get a Ps3.

Do you have lots of online friends on XBox? If the answer is no, then get the PS3.

Oh, and get Demon Souls.;)

The PS3 is a much better deal overall. There are not many exclusives left on either side, so that's not really a major selling point anymore. Get the one that doesn't break and has a blu-ray player.

And, just FYI I'm a 360 owner who wants to purchase a PS3 soon (to have both)

I voted for PS3 but I have both. A lot depends on what kind of games you play in my opinion. I had always been a Playstation fan until Halo came out at which time I bought the X Box.

If I had to do it all over again I would go to Blockbuster and rent one than the other and see which one you like better.

If you are the typical guy you will be happy with either system.

PS3. It's a base for your home theater, is more reliable, will make your johnson bigger, and is free to play online, which is great for players like me who can't get on every night to play, because I hang out with my "friends" in places other than the online gaming community. Sure Xbox has a lot more titles than PS3, but how many of them do you actually want to play?

...I thought so.

I was a proud owner of an Xbox, and have never owned a Sony console in my life before this, but the PS3 is just all around a superior system.

As a video game developer I can tell you that the industry at large HATES developing for the PS3. It's difficult to code for and Sony never supplies the proper tools with which to use.

My own personal opinion is formed from these:

  • Games made for both Xbox 360 and PS3 perform at a much better frame rate on the 360.
  • PS3 color saturation is too high. Games often look cartoony and look less realistic. (Sony-only games do look OK tho)
  • 360 has a much larger and higher quality game catalog.
  • 360 controllers are built MUCH better and do not have to be sent back to MS when the internal battery dies.
  • MS LIVE is far superior to Sony Online (used to be the other way around) guess you get what you don't pay for. Although, now there is talk of Sony charging for it's online.
  • 360 GPU is more powerful and has a better fill rate, and far more pixel and vertex processing power.
  • Xbox 360 is cheaper.

The PS3 isn't bad, it just isn't the 360. If the library were bigger than I guess the match would be closer. Maybe...

      So, after Sunday's game does that mean we're stuck with Bryce for the foreseeable future?

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Its too late for that.  Time has run out.  You dont give him a ext if he plays "decent".  He played "decent" at the end of last year and look what happened.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By woahfraze · Posted

      I’m not necessarily advocating sticking with Bryce. His highs show the ability is there, but there’s enough bad film out there to doubt that he can consistently enough play at a high enough level. But this video from Brett Kollman is a pretty good argument to give it a bit more time, whether that be rolling with Bryce just next year or picking up his 5th year option (not extending him).      The gist is that the structural (wider hashes) and rule (3 yd vs 1 yd thresholds for intelligible offensive lineman downfield penalties) differences in the college and NFL have led to wildly different play calling and scheme diets in college. There is much more shotgun and RPO calls in college and screen/quick throws. This simply doesn’t set up young QBs to be able to play under center, which is more preferred in the NFL due to RBs being able to more effectively run out of that formation.  They don’t know how to do it and have to learn. Yes, the NFL has trended more toward college style offense in the last decade or so, but it isn’t that pronounced and is more out of necessity than desire. And on top of all that, they ask the young QBs to do all this learning with coaching and other personnel churn going on around them.  Bad results lead to coaches getting fired and new ones with different ideas on scheme and footwork and different terminology and playbooks coming in. It makes it harder on those young QBs to learn.     So we may drop Bryce for a young QB starter in the draft and be in a similar situation. With a QB who is going to take years to learn how to operate in an NFL style offense and will struggle along the way.  So you have to weigh whether the struggles we see from Bryce are more due to this learning process vs solely physical limitations on his part. It’s almost undoubtedly a bit of both, but the answer to that question I think dictates your strategy at QB over the next few years. And of course, you have to consider what the alternatives available are.    I’m neither a Bryce hater or a Bryce Stan and I don’t have an answer to that question. But I do fear that if we move on from him, unless it’s for an established player, we’re just in for continued frustration on the QB front because it’s going to take a few years for a college QB to develop (Drake Maye’s don’t grow on trees).
